IBM’s Deep Blue, which beat chess grand master Garry Kasparov at the game in 1996, or Google DeepMind’s AlphaGo, which in 2016 beat Lee Sedol at Go, are examples of narrow AI—AI that is skilled at one specific task.

DeepMind, on the other hand, is: It beat the world champion in Go by training itself on a large data set of expert moves.SEE: Machine learning: The smart person’s guide (TechRepublic)Is your business interested in integrating machine learning into its strategy?

It would take a very massive data set of images for it to understand the very minor details that distinguish a cat from, say, a cheetah or a panther or a fox.As mentioned above, in March 2016, a major AI victory was achieved when DeepMind’s AlphaGo program beat world champion Lee Sedol in 4 out of 5 games of Go using deep learning.
